I get the following message for every restore point I try:

System Restore did non complete Successfully

Details:
System Restore failed to extract the original copy of the directory from the restore point.
Source: %ProgramFiles%\WindowsApps
Destination:AppxStaging
An unspecified error occurred during System Restore. (0x8007025d)

The Anniversary Upgrade is not working for me and is complete garbage...

Any help would be appreciated.

Half time I type out the source info, the person doesn't need it..

to fix that you need to download a copy of the win 10 ISO (use windows media creation tool to make it, get that Here) and then mount that in File Explorer (see Here) and then copy paste this command into Command Prompt (Admin)

DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth /source:WIM:X:\Sources\Install.wim:1 /LimitAccess

Where "X" is the drive letter where the ISO is located. Simply change the "X" to the correct drive letter


Good thing you have the anniversary update as the ISO has to match your installed version.

right click start menu
choose commend prompt (Admin)
type SFC /scannow and press enter.

Once it runs, then copy/paste this in:
DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth
line above needs to have exact spacing to work.

these should hopefullyt fix the problem

Thanks Colif--I'm running it now.

Also, I see you are using a Samsung 4k uhd display. I have a Samsung 4k uhd js9000 that is my main grief with the anniversary upgrade. I posted here on it, but haven't heard anything on it. (maybe didn't describe my issue clearly enough)

If you have any insight on that at all, it would be appreciated:http://www.tomshardware.com/forum/id-3152769/windows-ann-update-display-broken.html

So it seems that resulted in a 0x800f081f error:


C:\WINDOWS\system32>SFC /scannow

Beginning system scan. This process will take some time.

Beginning verification phase of system scan.
Verification 100% complete.

Windows Resource Protection found corrupt files but was unable to fix some
of them. Details are included in the CBS.Log windir\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. For
example C:\Windows\Logs\CBS\CBS.log. Note that logging is currently not
supported in offline servicing scenarios.

C:\WINDOWS\system32>DISM /Online /Cleanup-Image /RestoreHealth

Hate to tell you this but Windows Updates will wreak havoc on your Restore Points and Windows System Restore. Normally the Update wipes the Restore Points, so I'm honestly surprised that the Restore Points are still there.

If you are getting the mandatory updates, or otherwise update often, consider replacing Windows System Restore with an alternative like Comodo Time Machine or Rollback Rx Home. Both are free so you won't have to spring extra unless you want deluxe versions.
